Unit 5 - Metabolic Reactions - M'Kenna
Unit Test - April 2, 2026
Students should have their Green Spiral Science Notebook that they bring to class everyday. We add to this notebook everyday in three sections; Warm-ups, Lesson Classwork, and Vocabulary.
*We finished our essays (Yay! So proud of them!) and we are now starting our new unit that focuses on Brain Science and Phineas Gage. Students will study brain science and Gage's incredible story and, in doing so, this week participate in academic discourse, ClEvRLi writing, identifying central idea, and more! Additionally, all middle school students are going to be participating in watching a production of The Tempest by the Kentucky Shakespeare Company, and, therefore, we will be completing a prequel activity for that as well (to familiarize students with Shakespeare and this specific play!).

What We’re Learning: Unit 4
Over the next few weeks, students will explore Medieval China, the Mongol Empire, and Medieval Japan. We are learning how new ideas, trade, and powerful leaders shaped societies across Asia and beyond. Students will examine historical sources, participate in class discussions, and use evidence to answer an essential question:
How does the past and outside influences fuel transformation?
